Who invests in renewable electricity production? Empirical evidence and suggestions for further research (2013, background): “Barradale (2010) shows that motives and risk propensity influence investors’ choices of ownership models.”
Evaluating investments in renewable energy under policy risks (2016, unknown): “Further (empirical) analyses of specific aspects of policy and regulatory risks as well as risk drivers are studied in Alesina and Perotti (1996), Barradale (2010), Fagiani and Hakvoort (2014), Holburn (2012), Hitzeroth and Megerle (2013), Lüthi and Prässler (2011) as well as in Lüthi and Wüstenhage”
Diffusion of low-carbon technologies and the feasibility of long-term climate targets (2015, background): “For example, Barradale (2010) (2010) demonstrated, on the basis of a survey of energy experts, that the boom-bust cycle observed in the investment in wind power in the U.S. is caused not by the underlying economics of wind but by the negotiation dynamics of power purchase agreements in the face of…”
Public policy influence on renewable energy investments—A panel data study across OECD countries (2015, background): “We therefore confirm earlier research that pointed towards an ambivalent nature of taxes as they depend on public budgets (Barradale, 2010; Cansino et al., 2010; Quirion, 2010).”
Overview of Current Microgrid Policies, Incentives and Barriers in the European Union, United States and China (2017, background): “Small-scale power plants sell power to the central operators who owns the transmission and distribution networks [67].”
Mobilizing private finance for low-carbon innovation – A systematic review of barriers and solutions (2017, unknown): “Effective measures include public-private RD&D partnerships [10], advocacy coalitions with financiers [22], mission-driven public investments [144,167], demand stimulus [120] and a (RD&D) tax-system reform [17,57,137].”
Determinants of Renewable Energy Growth: A Global Sample Analysis (2014, background): “…had a pattern of repeated expiration and short-term renewal (usually no more than a couple of years), creating a boom-bust cycle in investments in this technology over the years, which is also believed to be damaging the industry’s prospects due to the uncertainty it creates (see Barradale, 2010).”
